The language barrier was a bit difficult at first but easliy overcome with a bit of effort- i would def recomend hiring a mountain bike in the Tatra mountians- The tourist info centre can give you information on this- it is stupidly cheap and great fun- was a nighmare riding up a mountain for 2...more The language barrier was a bit difficult at first but easliy overcome with a bit of effort- i would def recomend hiring a mountain bike in the Tatra mountians- The tourist info centre can give you information on this- it is stupidly cheap and great fun- was a nighmare riding up a mountain for 2 hours but that was all forgotten coming back down the hill.close

At any time of the year, there are several outdoor activities available (walking, skiing, tobogganing, cycling etc). The town is a tourist paradise & swarms with school groups & small groups. Souvenir stands line the streets & there is a large market at the foot of Gubalowka Hill. Despite this, the place still retains a lot of charm & provides an excellent base for exploring the surrounding area. We found most residents very friendly & only too pleased to help with polite enquiries.close

  2. Good Bye Lenin Hostel Zakopane 88%      

    Great place-better if you have a car since it's out of town a bit, but overall a good place to relax after a day on the slopes or hiking.
